Chapter 824: Jia Xu's Calculations
On the outskirts of Luoyang City, between the mountains on the north side and the Songshan mountains, steep mountain gorges are intertwined.
A hidden training camp stands in the middle of the cliffs on all sides, which is the darkest place in the entire Great Wei Dynasty, the latest training camp established by the ghost guards.
The night was shrouded, the light of the brazier was reflected, and there was still a restless sound of killing echoing throughout the training camp.
On the left, in a hewn cave house, the light of an oil lamp shone brightly.
"Fang Shi, have you sorted out the information I gave you?" Jia Xu, the commander of the ghost pawns, sat on the stone chair steadily, looking at the young man standing respectfully in front of him.
"Grand Commander, this is a rough compilation of the information you gave me, and I have preliminarily marked a total of twelve suspicious candidates!"
Fang Shi is a thirty-year-old young man with a big boxy face, a calm face, a clean and neat speech, and an old man.
"So soon, let me see, eunuch Cao Leng, Ling Yu?"
After Jia Xu took over the information, he carefully looked at the file marked here, and then whispered to himself: "These two are old henchmen who have been following Your Majesty, they have been following Your Majesty for ten years, and they can get the most detailed information around Your Majesty, they are indeed a little suspicious, but Cao Leng's time is not right, why do you list him as a suspect?" ”
"Cao Leng is a small eunuch left by His Majesty's grandfather back then, he has been the old lady in the Cao family's clothes, it stands to reason that he should not be suspected, but he disappeared for a period of time in the first year of Chuping, and his suspicion cannot be ruled out!"
Fang Shi said in a decent manner: "The people around Your Majesty are all Your Majesty's henchmen, and if you want to check Your Majesty's henchmen, then you must get rid of all the thoughts that are logical and loyal to Your Majesty." Even if there is even the slightest suspicion, you must investigate it! ”
"That's right, there's nothing wrong with being careful!"
Jia Xu nodded, very satisfied with Fang Shi's attitude, and then continued to look at the information: "Cao Yu, Xiahou Wan." Lin Chong, these are all among the captains of the Royal Forest Army and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, they are on the battlefield to block knives for His Majesty, and they are listed as suspects by you, what do you think? ”
"The people around the king, except for the chamberlain, the palace maids, and the concubines of the harem, that is, the generals of the Royal Forest Army and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, are the closest to him. Listing them as the first class of suspicion, subordinates take it for granted! ”
The way of ashlar analysis.
"What about this Xiahou Ling, is he an ordinary child of the Xiahou family, as the nephew of Xiahou and Xiahou Yuan, the leader of the second generation of the Great Wei Dynasty, will he be suspicious?
You have to know that between the Xiahou family and the royal Cao family, broken bones are connected to the roots. You're a bit of a fool, one carelessly. The ghost pawn will arouse the anger of the entire Xiahou family, which is not fun! ”
Jia Xu's eyes were like blades, and he looked at Fang Shi deadly.
"My lord, Xiahou Ling has been with His Majesty for a few years, as a small scribe, he is the same as Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu. has been by His Majesty's side for many years, and they are all children of the clan that His Majesty prefers.
His subordinates thought that he was not suspicious, but after all, he only defected to Wei Ying from his hometown in the first year of Chuping, and in time. He is worthy of the suspicion of rats, check it, there is a mistake in killing, and he does not let it go.
Of course, this person is innocent, his origin is clear, and he can't find anything, the reason why he must be checked is another reason, we want to find out the shadows around His Majesty, which involves a lot, and Cha Xiahou Ling is just an example for everyone else! ”
Fang Shi analyzed: "The ghost pawn is telling everyone that Your Majesty's current mentality, no matter who is involved in this matter, it will be investigated to the end, no one is an exception, only in this way can we successfully investigate!" ”
"Okay, you've done a good job of this, even I've ignored it!"
Jia Xu nodded with satisfaction, looked at the information again, and didn't find any doubts about him, so he handed it to Fang Shi and said, "I'll leave this matter to you!" ”
"The subordinates promise to live up to the expectations of the Grand Commander!"
Fang Shi nodded, and then walked out of the stone cave house with the information.
After half a ring, a young figure came out of the side room in the quiet stone house, and saluted respectfully to Jia Xu: "Father, the child thinks that what he said is already eight or nine and ten!" ”
"Didn't he deliberately leave someone out?"
Jia Xu squinted his eyes, looking at the young man, and the light in his eyes was cold.
"Nope!"
Jia Mu thought about it, but shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "I sent someone to follow up on the whole process of their screening, there should be no problem, and I think he has done it carefully enough, and even the concubines of the harem are involved, so he has to be a little iron-faced and selfless!" ”
"Hehehe, Bowen, this is where you are inferior to him!"
Jia Xu shook his head and said: "You still don't have enough experience, so you can't see his small movements, he has inadvertently sold a lot of favors, just with this case, he can stand firm in the ghost pawn." ”
"Why?"
"Just because none of the suspects he listed are our own people, it's enough to explain the problem!"
"What does Father mean, that he has a problem?" Jia Mu's face was slightly cold.
"It's hard to say, Fang Shi is the only remaining leader of the Ying Yangwei in the past, he was very loyal to the Jin Kingdom back then, and he didn't choose to surrender after suffering from our seven ghost punishments, and in the end he was forced to surrender by me personally with one thing he cared more about, it stands to reason that he has no problem, and if there is a problem, it should be the problem of the Jin Kingdom, and it can't involve Jinyiwei!"
Jia Xu's fists clenched slightly inexplicably, but his voice was a little weak.
The Ying Yang Wei of the Jin Kingdom has already established a prototype, and after being incorporated by the ghost pawns, an Eagle Yang Hall managed by the ghost pawns was set up to deal with their own people.
This Fang Shi, he didn't doubt it, but in the end, he let himself go very much, and he was too relieved, but he was a little uneasy, where the uneasiness was, and it was not clear what he was.
So during this time, he was still observing him while using him.
"So my father wants to use him to check the Jinyi Guard's secret son next to His Majesty!" Jia Mu gasped: "Can he bear it?" ”
"This time Your Majesty gave us a terrible job, the one next to Your Majesty is not a person with an extraordinary background, the backer is scary, the ghost pawn is now checking the people around His Majesty, it's too hot, this job can only be done by him!"
Jia Xu said lightly: "As for whether he can bear it, it depends on his ability!" ”
"Why would Fang Shi be willing to take on this job?"
"He didn't have a choice!"
Jia Xu shrugged his shoulders, not very concerned: "With this Eagle Yangwei to surrender to the Great Wei, they can't melt into the ghosts, and they want to gain a foothold, they can only survive if they become a mad dog loyal to His Majesty."
Ying Yangtang is not only staring at the Great Wei Dynasty, but now His Majesty is still staring at our ghost pawn with an eyeliner, Fang Shi said that it is my subordinate, it is better to say that it is His Majesty's dog, it is a flag that His Majesty is staring at me! ”
"It turns out that my father is consuming the remaining strength of Ying Yangwei!"
Jia Mu kind of understood Jia Xu's intentions.
"Eagle Yangtang is already a part of our ghosts, I don't care very much, but I can't let them make it bigger, if it is appropriate, we must break off the wings of this eagle, and then use it to catch mice, this 'mouse' must be found out, otherwise, not only Your Majesty will not be able to sleep and eat, even a certain family will not be at peace!"
Jia Xu said coldly.
Wu Guo Jinyiwei is his biggest enemy Jia Xu, and now Jinyiwei's people have been buried in the heart of Dawei, and no one will be at ease if they don't come out.
"Father, we only have one clue, it's hard to find out!" Jia Mu smiled bitterly: "Between the first year of Chuping and the second year of Chuping, there were many people who took refuge in our Wei camp, and after these years of bloody battles, the small soldiers and veterans of the year were promoted, all of them were high and powerful, and they held military power, how to check?" ”
"It's not a news of freedom, we also have a piece of news, we didn't find the secret son of Jinyi Wei ourselves, but Sima Yi found out a secret son from the family's channels, which was a chess piece sent to Hanzhong by King Wu back then."
Jia Xu's eyes burst into sharp light: "Sima Yi has already reached contact with this person, from this person, the news we can get is that Sun Zhongmou used a total of twenty chess pieces in the past, and there were five who entered the Wei camp, Xu Lei counted one, and Gong Nan counted one!" ”
"Then there are at least three more that haven't been found?" Jamu swallowed his throat involuntarily.
"Not necessarily!"
Jia Xu sneered: "Now that so many years have passed, it is impossible that the five shadows he buried are still alive, I personally think that there should be only one left, and this person is the core mouse!" ”
"But we don't have a portrait of a mouse?"
Jamu was still a little worried: "How to check, looking for a needle in a haystack?" “
"We haven't seen a mouse, someone has seen a mouse before!" Jia Xu said: "You go to a painter, draw all the portraits of these suspected people, and send them to Sima Yi for comparison one by one!" ”
"Why don't you let Sima Yi send this person to the ghost pawn!"
"He's Zhang Lu's man!"
Jia Xu analyzed: "Now it's just cooperation with us, not to be sincere!" ”
"I see!"
Jamu nodded and walked down.
Jia Xu sat quietly on the stone chair alone, poured himself a cup of bitter tea, and after taking a sip of it, he spit out a mouthful of turbidity: "Brother Wen Wei, I have already put the bait, I want to see how you deal with the current situation!" ”
Since the establishment of the ghost pawn, he has been pressed and beaten by Jinyiwei, and now Jinyiwei is in chaos, maybe it is a great opportunity, this opportunity, he doesn't want to let go.
The bait he laid was enough to kill a group of Jinyiwei assassins if it could touch Li Nie's heart, and instead find out the real target. (To be continued......)
